modV 3.0

modV 3.0 is a complete rewrite of modV 2.0 with a focus on performance and a standardised API.

Project setup

yarn

Compiles and hot-reloads for development

yarn run electron:serve

Builds for release

yarn run electron:build

Platform specifics for building

Windows

Shell

CMD or PowerShell is required as native binaries need to be compiled or fetched for Windows. WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) or WSL2 are not supported as they will try to compile those binaries for Ubuntu.

Dependancies

Windows Platform tools are required for building native binaries. You can install them in a shell opened as administrator with the following snippet:

npm install --global --production windows-build-tools

Note: This will take some time and you don't get much feedback of what is happening, so please wait until you get confirmation the installation process has finished otherwise painful Visual Studio things will need to be fixed!

'vue-cli-service' is not recognized

Please see issue 122 (#122 (comment)) on how to resolve this.

Ubuntu/Debian

libndi is required for NDI sources and must be installed for modV to build. You can find that available to download here: https://github.com/Palakis/obs-ndi/releases

Last successful build was with libndi4_4.5.1-1_amd64.deb.

Other Linux flavours

Untested. NDI is provided by grandiose, our fork is here: https://github.com/vcync/grandiose/ This fork of grandiose has other libndi supported platforms, however even on Ubuntu we needed the above libndi package to be installed.

Let us know how you get on (good or bad) and we'll update the repo and docs accordingly.
